How about this:

Steve J made ~10 billion at the time of his death at 56. Steve W made ~100 million and is still around at 75.

To make math real simple, I would definitely pay $500 million a year to stick around.

Jobs is ultimately an example of how death doesn’t care what is your net worth.
Well it kinda would have cared a bit but he himself didn't. He could have afforded the most bleeding edge treatments. But he chose to go to witch doctors instead.
That's example how CEOs and guys on the top are not "all knowing, smartest, best of breed" just "relentless, lucky and in right place in right time".
As is anyone.
